Definitions
- a vehicle is typically outfitted with a number of lamps or lights that provide illumination in certain areas. Certain lights may be mounted and configured to illuminate areas within the vehicle interior while others lights may be mounted and configured to illuminate areas exterior to the vehicle. Typically, the interior lights may illuminate areas that facilitate operator ingress or egress, or operation and control of the vehicle. The exterior lights may also facilitate operator ingress or egress, and may also be configured to illuminate other external areas. For example, exterior vehicle lights may provide forward illumination for lighting a path of travel, and rearward or side illumination for safety or providing an indication of a function, such as reverse indicator lights. In a work vehicle, exterior lights may also be provided for illuminating a work area, typically located forward of the cab of the work vehicle.

- the lighting control application 32 may be configured to enable a user to provide inputs that control the one or more functions or parameters of operation of each light 12 in accordance with certain conditions or operations and in accordance with one or more states of the state service 40.
- the user input device 24 and/or the light controller 16 may also be connected, such as via a wireless connection, to one or more external sensors or input devices that are provided on the vehicle 14.
- the user input device 24 and/or the light controller 16 may further have integrated sensors or input devices, such as the sensors 20, the user sensors 38 and/or the vehicle sensors 48.
- sensors or input devices may include, but not be limited to, vehicle operation or condition sensors, ambient light sensors, cameras, GPS sensors, compass or directional sensors, level sensors, etc.
- Inputs from the sensors and/or user input device 24 may be provided to the light controller 16, such as via a wireless communication connection, e.g. Bluetooth.
- the lighting control application 32 may receive and preprocess such inputs, and may then output control/command signals to the one or more light controllers 16 that may process these and other signals, such as sensor signals from the sensors 20, and subsequently output control signals to the one or more lights 12 so as to control the one or more functions or parameters of operation of each light 12 in accordance with certain conditions or operations detected or sensed by the sensors or input devices.
- the state service 40 may maintain multiple states 80, such as states "S1," “S2,” “S3,” and so forth as shown, in a state logic implementation.
- Each state may define a function of one or more of the lights 12, and modifying a function of a light 12, such as according to receipt of a sensor and/or command signal, may cause a transition from one state to another.
- the state logic implementation and requirements for transitioning between states may be configured by the user via the lighting control application 32.
- the light system may read the user input device 24, which may be represented as receiving one or more command signals. Reading the user input device 24 allows, for example, the light controller 16 to recognize conditions or requirements for advancing between states.

- the lights 12 can be placed into a flashing mode so as to provide a visual warning for certain conditions.
- the vehicle is a forklift 130 having a level sensor, it can send an input to the user input device 24 or light controller 16 indicative of a non-level condition, and in turn one or more of the vehicle lights 12 may be sent into a flashing mode to alert the surrounding area of a dangerous operating condition.
- the user may input certain custom conditions using the lighting control application 32, for example to provide certain defined areas of dimming.
- the state service 40 may provide predefined settings or states 80 to choose from depending on laws and regulations of the current location, or even informal best practices shared by other users of a similar situation and site.
- a vehicle position sensor such as on the turntable of a backhoe or the like, can be used to automatically dim appropriate ones of the lights 12 when the lights 12 would otherwise be positioned to shine on an adjacent area.
- the adjacent area may be a roadway and the vehicle lights 12 can be controlled so as not to shine on the roadway when the vehicle 14 is positioned such that the lights 12 face or would otherwise normally shine on the roadway.
- the adjacent area may also be a work area, and the lights 12 can be controlled so as not to shine on the work area when the vehicle 14 is positioned such that the lights 12 face or would otherwise normally shine on the work area and/or workers present in the work area. This can avoid glare toward oncoming traffic and for workers in the vicinity of the machine, and also save power by only illuminating the area necessary for the work being performed.
- the lights 12 can be dimmed to a predetermined level, or can be dimmed to a level dictated by ambient light conditions or the like. Workers on a mining site, for example, may be given suggestions by the state service 40 to use a profile specifically tailored for the dimensions and even reflections of the surrounding tunnels.
- a user with a user input device 24, such as a remote control or smart phone can communicate with the lights 12 to turn one or more lights 12 on as the user approaches the vehicle and/or to turn one or more lights 12 off as the user departs the area of the vehicle.
- a user input device 24 such as a remote control or smart phone
